Minster Lovell

Welcome to Minster Lovell

Set on a gentle slope that leads down to the meandering River Windrush, Minster Lovell is a gorgeous village where a clutch of thatch-roofed stone cottages nestle beside an ancient pub and riverside mill. One of William Morris’ favourite spots, this peaceful flower-filled hamlet has changed little since medieval times. It’s 18 miles west of Oxford and divided into two halves: Old Minster, recorded in the Domesday Book (1086), and the rather newer (less charming) Minster Lovell, across the river and up the hill.
